New Sonic 20th Anniversary Trailer Released – Now With More Of The Same!

Remember when Sonic the Hedgehog was the epochal archetype for all things “cool” and “awesome” and “fast and blue and stuff” in the gaming world?

Fast forward a bit and the advent of 3D gaming has all but ruined his image, but that might well be set to change with the coming “Lord Of The Rings: The Blue Hedgehog” “Sonic 20th Anniversary”. Or not. You know. Either or.

Today saw the release of a new trailer for the upcoming retro title that subscribes to the “If you can’t innovate, duplicate!” ethos, and as such shows our old favourite running through your typical Sonic level from the first game, showing all of the typical Sonic gameplay that you remember. Except it looks prettier. And probably plays smoother. We can hope.

Will it be enough to redeem the series from the fires of Mount Doom? Time will tell…
